traversantes

French to English Tech/Engineering Physics Patents
Context:
11. Procédé d’assemblage selon la revendication 10, où une plaque bipolaire (6) et une plaque membrane (15) sont percées de lumières (10, 11, 16) en regard, de manière à former des canalisations de réactif gazeux et au moins une canalisation de fluide de refroidissement traversantes et où le moyen adhésif à prise lente (3) est déposé selon un contour (17, 18, 19) continu et fermé entourant chacune des lumières (10, 11, 16) et selon un contour (20) continu et fermé en périphérie des plaques (6, 15).

Last leg on editing task and Target offering is as follows:
cooling fluid channel extending therethrough,
I do have serious doubts about "therethrough" even for a patent application.

TIA Chris.

@Conor and all Thanks for the info, didn't think about interface, would be nice to have atleast the same options for people using the old or new one.
Conor McAuley Jul 30, 2021:
Yeah it's just nasty. I'm switching back.
SafeTex Jul 30, 2021:
@ Conor and all The new interface is horrible and shows how small differences can make a big impact. By abandoning the table layout, there is too much text mixed up together causing us to skim and scan for what we want rather than running down a column. But you can't tell them this at Proz as they are stubbornly sticking with it. I never use it.
Conor McAuley Jul 29, 2021:
Yes, I can confirm that you need to be on the new interface to be able to upload images.

The new interface is hurting my brain and eyes a bit though!
Conor McAuley Jul 29, 2021:
Samuël, I can't see it, but I'm using the old version of the page. Will try to switch.
Samuël Buysschaert Jul 29, 2021:
@Mpoma That's weird; should work i'm on W10 too.
If you click on it, you shoud have sthg like this.


Mpoma Jul 29, 2021:
@Samuël Well, I just had a look: I can include URLs, but I couldn't see anything about uploading images. What OS are you on? I'm on W10. This may make a difference...
Samuël Buysschaert Jul 29, 2021:
@Mpoma You can upload image(s), it's right under the Explanation box when you answer, you can also upload images in discussion.

To Asker Searches for "therethrough" and "therethrough" + "patent" return large numbers of hits. Here is one for "therethrough" + "patent" https://www.patentguru.com/keywords/therethrough

through-X

i.e. in this case "through-pipe".

The problem is the agreement: why is it f. pl.? This could be because of the expression au moins allowing for the possibility of the pipe(s) being plural. Not terribly literate if so, but a likely explanation IMHO.
Peer comment(s):

agree philgoddard : It should be in the singular.

pass/flow-through cooling line

For your consideration


Peer comment(s):

disagree Mpoma : +1, though, for somehow incorporating images: I don't know how you did that!

Suppose it depends on ProZ interface
